Once Upon A December (piano cover)

[fenikkusu64]

I really adore this song. I've come across similar songs like this when the right hand plays both the melody and the rhythm, and people don't realize the difficulty of it xD

I applaud you~

[duVillage]

@fenikkusu64 I am very happy you liked it. I spent a lot of time perfecting it, long after I could play the notes n_n

[fenikkusu64]

@duVillage I know your pain. Man, I really miss my piano. XD Maybe I'll try this one out when I get the chance.

[duVillage]

@fenikkusu64 I have to miss my piano part of the week :-(

[fenikkusu64]

@duVillage I'd love that kind of piano. ;x That must be torture omg.

[duVillage]

I bought an ocarina to kill the time in the other house.

[fenikkusu64]

@duVillage Now playing this song because of you. XD I need to find a good copy of the official sheet music, because the majority of the stuff I'm finding online is nothing compared to this. >>

[AntiqueMusika]

Lovely. <3

[duVillage]

@AntiqueMusika Omg you live!

Thanks hun!

[NATALIAtbs]

Great!



[hitomiblue]

Did not make up to tears, but nostalgy overflowed in me... I used to sing this song 10 years ago. I don't know how I should put it, but thank you. Perfect recording, perfect emotion.

[duVillage]

@hitomiblue Thank you very much for your lovely comment. This is actually one of the more technically demanding pieces I have recorded. Although I am now working on something that will put this to shame xD

[PeterBosmanStudio]

Good to "hear" from you again! Very lovely. Keep it up!

[katecovington]

Awesome!

[duVillage]

@katecovington Thank you very much, Kate! I cannot wait for the new Erutan album n_n.

[xSeeraAi]

Nice to see something new ^_^

[duVillage]

@xSeeraAi I know, right? I took two weeks off now, so I hope I can make a lot more!

[XxDarkkstarrxX]

oh god.

this is absolutely beautiful

good job ron! :D

[duVillage]

@XxDarkkstarrxX Thank you very much Stephanie. This holiday I will ass-whip everyone with whom I still have open collabs so hopefully our song will also be ready for release soon.

[XxDarkkstarrxX]

@duVillage

awww yay :D

[MsLovableMuffin]

It's perfect...

I hope to play as beautifully as you do one day!

[duVillage]

@MsLovableMuffin Practice a lot n_n. I did not see any piano videos on your channel yet, maybe you should record yourself someday ^_^

[MsLovableMuffin]

@duVillage

Maybe someday ^^ Thank you very much, I will practice a lot!

[StrawbelIyCake]

Beautiful Ron! ♥

~ *sing along* :D

[duVillage]

@StrawbelIyCake We should do that for real sometime!

[xVeilx]

Very beautiful! I loved it, and you are of course as amazingly skilled as always =)

[duVillage]

@xVeilx Ah, thank you Veil! I also miss new stuff on your channel. Don't be lazy like me xD

[46LCG]

We've missed you but oh golly, was it worth it to hear this!! I was swaying with the music--you did such an incredible job! <3 Bravo!!

[duVillage]

@46LCG I will try to make more live videos and also play more technically demanding pieces. This might mean I will not put out as much (although hopefully more than the last few months) but I hope my material will improve.

[icethief101]

AMAZING!!!!!! :)

[duVillage]

@icethief101 Thank you n_n

[skribbleraynebows]

I love this song. Thanks for being so amazing.

[duVillage]

@skribbleraynebows I love this song too. Thanks for being so supportive.

[8Amaterasu8]

Haha that is a worthy challenge. I remember in high school, I'd catch my friends trying to master that song, very tricky stuff!

[duVillage]

@8Amaterasu8 Most of the people attempting it on YouTube mess it up entirely. Let's hope I will not be one of those people.

Also helps that I've spent considerable time in the past to get the audio quality as good as possible with my current equipment.

[8Amaterasu8]

@duVillage All the versions I've seen have been worthy performances, I'll look forward to yours, and yeah - looking forward to hearing it with some good audio quality =)

[8Amaterasu8]

It has been too long! I love this song, and I look forward to your ambitious projects =)

[duVillage]

@8Amaterasu8 Among the things is the beast of the piano songs of Final Fantasy VII: Tatakau Monotachi. The song has been my goal since before I started playing piano and now I am finally ready to take it on. I have been working on it consistently since January. I have honed my skills considerably over the past year, reaching new heights... quality over quantity for now!
